Discussed with others how well he did in his exams, and was still not chosen. Says there is either an age limit [Moe is about 34 at this time] or a quota for Jews. Says the Russians learned a lot, at great cost, from the Germans, and that the Germans just cracked under the pressure and lack of material. |
